“Absolutely astoundingly wonderful. She is knowledgeable, caring, and even with our diabetic sr. And highly active 15 mo old pup and we can’t say enough about her care of our beloved labs. Words are not enough. She’s our woman long into the future. Thank you, Alexa!”
“Carla took great care of our puppy. She provided ample play time and kept us updated with messages and pictures. We were very comfortable knowing Manchego was being well taken care of! Thanks Carla!”
“Jackie did an amazing job of taking care of my dog. She kept me informed and sending plenty of picture updates which I truly appreciate. I highly recommend and will use her again in the future.”
“We absolutely loved Carrie and all her pups. Our baby, Tiffany had a blast. She was always doing something. Carrie made her homemade healthy treats. Fed her well. Loved her and treated as if she was her own. We will definitely be using Carrie again and Tiffany can’t wait!”
“Can I give 6 stars? Karen was great to work with. Very communicative and flexible. My dogs stayed for 2 weeks. Karen sent pictures and updates regularly. I loved her setup for the dogs. My dogs love to sit in the yard and watch the world. She's out in the country with horses nearby. I think they spent a lot of time there. Plus she has a special area in her house set aside for the dogs with beds and water. Overall a great experience”
“Kaitlyn was wonderful about communicating and sending updates about my dog. I feel confident she was well loved and was taken to the dog park to get her energy out. It was a relief to my husband and I knowing she was having fun and she was safe while we were on vacation.”
“Jennifer (and her husband) were very welcoming, accommodating and accepting when we first met in their home. My daughter, who just turned fourteen and is usually shy with strangers, felt very comfortable meeting them. As for our Yuki, he felt right at home and began exploring and making friends with their pup as well. I received photos that showed our puppy happy and playful. He was well taken care of and I would gladly use Jennifer’s services again! I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a home where your pet will be loved and well taken care of!”
“Tiana was great in keeping up communication before and during Ozzie's stay. I couldn't have been happier knowing he was in good hands. I appreciated the meet and greet beforehand, as well as the pictures she sent me. I will definitely be taking ozzie back next time I'm out of town.”
About: I have had several dogs and other animals throughout my life. My experience includes full time care of puppies and older dogs. I’m here to treat each animal as if they are my own and to take care of them as their owners wish! I’m flexible and will be so happy to watch after any pups while their owners are out. I do have a Labrador retriever mix that keeps me busy. I am happy to get out, go on walks and travel to different areas to make sure all pups have fun! I am very open and am here to help out with any needs of the pets or owners. It will be a pleasure to look after your animals and to help you out as you travel, work and go on outings.
About: I've had dogs all my life, but grew up loving animals of all kinds. I have previously done pet check-ins and dog walks on Rover. I did not do in-house sitting, in order to keep my house my senior dog's safe space. But I lost my best friend after 17 1/2 years, and am missing the friendship and companionship in my home. I have been helping a local rescue with short term fostering when one of their fosters goes on vacation, as well as holiday fostering with Williamson County Animal Center. I would like to slowly open my home to new furry dog friends. I am familiar with senior dog issues and giving medications in pill and powder form, however, I don't have experience with injections, so I would not be the best fit if your pet requires those. I work at home full time during the week 7:00-4:00. Although I am home during the day and mostly available, I do have meetings throughout the day and can get pulled into conference calls, so I am not always instantly available and will need a little notice to book or cancel so that I can make sure I see your message and have availability when you drop off/pick up. I am open on how to best care for your pet based on your needs. I know from having a senior dog they all have their little quirks that make each one different. Do they have special food or special needs? Please let me know and I'll do my best to accommodate them. I just lost my best fur friend after 17 1/2 years, so I am looking for other fur friends to love on. I work full time from home, and am mostly available when not in meetings/calls. I would like to meet/call pet parents before their pet's first overnight stay and get as much information and instruction as possible. I want to make sure that the pet parent's expectations are met.
“This was our first time boarding our pup and Jessica made this super easy! She updated with frequent pictures! Super happy and will be using them again in the near future”
About: I have taken care of many different breeds of dogs over the years. I love being outdoors, weather permitting of course haha. I have personal experience with special needs dogs. My previous Australian Shepard had a severe heart murmur and idiopathic epilepsy. He was on several medications, several times a day. I administered all medications as well. I currently have an Australian Shepard that loves new furry friends. I trained my first Aussie and currently train with my boy daily. You can trust that your fur baby will be in great hands the entire time! Video and photo updates will always be available 🧡 I work full time from home Monday-Thursday until 5:30pm and 4 hours on Fridays. I am typically free Friday afternoon through Sunday. If your fur baby stays with me he/she will have plenty of play time and lovins all day😊. My home offers a large fenced in back yard, a friendly aussie to play with, plenty of outside time(weather permitting) and of course lots of lovins! Your fur baby can be crated if that is preferred.
About: I love dogs!! For all of my friends and family, I am the designated sitter if I’m available. I’ve taken care of dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I love playing outside with them and helping get them sleepy for their people- I know how much it helps to have the zoomies set free for our friends. I work remotely from home, so I am flexible. I know how important those potty breaks and walks are throughout the day, so I would love to help. I will definitely use any and all safety precautions you suggest! Whether your dog needs to be leashed at all times, closely watched during playtime/meals, or handled closely while on walks, I will follow your rules. I want to keep myself, your dog, and anyone we meet along walks safe.

The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Aethra can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Aethra home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Aethra.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Aethra. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Aethra sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in TN ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
